Her path to victory was not without its moments. She had “a shocker” on the par-3 14th and thought she was a goner, only for Shirley Paku to post a worse net.
She also had to survive a putt-off against Mihi Marino on the 16th before making par on 17 as Sue Maisey’s challenge ended.
Webb has been thoroughly enjoying her golf since joining Park a couple of seasons ago.
“The social aspect is mainly what I go for. A walk and a talk and if the golf is good, it’s a bonus.”
Jean Foot was knocked out on the 11th hole of the shootout but was the hero of her team in the Peter Dow Trophy on Sunday.
Foot shot 87 off the stick for 42 points to lead Brad Reynolds, Jo Kerr and Anaru Reedy to victory in the annual teams stableford.
Peter Koorey also had 42 points but had to settle for runners-up honours alongside Dave Harrison, Kath Papuni and Margaret Alley.
Twilight golf is back at the Park.
A 20-week twilight nine-hole competition open to golfers and non-golfers alike started today.
Tee-off is between 3.30pm and 6pm every Thursday.
There are two men’s stableford divisions and one for women, as well as a non-golfers’ section. There are also twos, approaches and long drives.
A Digg It Gizzy $50 bar tab lucky card will be drawn each week — the winner must be present.
Regular participants have the chance to qualify for the Summit Forestry nine-hole shootout final to be held on March 18.
The 10 players with the lowest net total from their 10 best cards will contest the final for a prize pool of around $2000.

A SHANKED ball that ended up in a golf buggy.
A new nickname for a committee member.
An air shot treble.
An age-equalling round.
It was an eventful last week on the Awapuni Links.
Brian “BJ” Morrissey’s performance was the highlight.
On the weekend of his 50th wedding anniversary (congratulations BJ and Wiki), the 77-year-old shot 77 on Sunday to win the division 1 men’s stableford.
A few years younger but similarly impressive, Ross Gibson marked his 70th birthday with 77-9-68, for 40 points also on Sunday. He was 2-under after three holes and had nine consecutive pars from the ninth to 17th holes.
Gibson voluntarily shouted the bar. John Holmes had to after three air-shots — two under the same tree.
Mark Higham won’t remember the week with fondness. His 20-point Thursday haul included a shank on the 18th with a bizarre conclusion.
Higham’s ball flew across the fairway and into a golf buggy being driven by Harvey Johnason.
All Johanson heard was something bouncing around his buggy and the ball ended up underneath the foot pedal.
“It didn’t touch me,” said Johanson.
“Mark yelled out ‘drive up to the green and put it in the hole’.”
Same Thursday the man with nicknames such as Lizards and Gray-zy — Gray Clapham — earned another with his 14 shots on the 14th hole.
“Hey, it’s Tekau Ma Wha (Maori for 14),” someone shouted when he walked into the 19th on Sunday.
A breakdown of Clapham’s hole has been posted on the Awapuni Links Facebook page.
Amid all the Thursday drama, Roger Murphy fired what is understood to be a Poverty Bay career-best 96-33-63, for 45 points — winning the division 2 men’s stableford by a whopping eight points.
Jan Utting iced her women’s plant stableford-winning 39 points with a two yesterday.
